Boycotting the Bowl

Ugh. Okay, whatever, so I guess there’s a football game this weekend. I usually hate the Super Bowl because I’m just so pisted off that my team isn’t in it. But this year, I’m extra furious.

With the Super Bowl just around the corner, this drink, which comes from the W Austin, is a good pleaser. It’s manly enough for a football party (Bourbon-based) but sweet enough to please those of us who are manly enough to admit we’re in it for the taste. It also pays homage to this year’s brother vs. brother Super Bowl…

You know we’re all about the cocktails here at Endless Simmer, but if there’s one thing we like more than mixing up a drink, it’s mixing our liquor up into our cooking. From cheesecake to truffles, noodles to wontons, there are few dishes that can’t be improved by a little booze. Some of them are simple (brats cooked in beer,…
